Carlisle hosted Yeovil in a League Two clash, where football most certainly wasn’t the winner Follow author Michael on Twitter here. The Pilgrimage Brunton Park, Carlisle. Home to one of the most remote grounds in the 92. For many clubs in the football league, the away trip to Carlisle is the longest they’ll have to make.

Newcastle fan Colin Harrison took another step towards the 92 club with a trip to the New Lawn, home of the first Vegan Football Club in the Football League. On Monday evening I recieved a text message which contained three words. Those words were ‘Forest Green Saturday’. The text was from my referee mate David Webb, who is helping me achieve my goal of reaching ‘The 92 Club’. As I had agreed to work on the Saturday in question, I had two people who I needed to persuade. The first was a colleague to cover my shift. The second, but… Read more »

Ground: Goodison Park (60/92) Game: Everton 4-0 Yeovil Town Date: 23/08/2016 The early rounds of the Cup competitions are a great way for groundhoppers to see their teams at grounds normally out of bounds.

Ground: The One Call Stadium (Field Mill) 56/92 (revisiting) Game: Mansfield Town 0-1 Yeovil Town Date: 05/03/2016 Following Yeovil hasn’t been a pleasant experience in recent years.

Blogger and Glovers fan pb1uk headed to the home of Notts County as Yeovil made the journey from the West Country to the East Midlands. Ground: Meadow Lane (Revisiting) Still 52/92 Game: Notts County 2-0 Yeovil Town Date: 19/10/2015 Thoughts on the ground: Being a Glovers exile living in the East Midlands, Notts County is the away game I look for first on the fixture list.

Two years ago, two teams were separated by 2 divisions, now following a rapid decline, Yeovil find themselves not only in the same division as Portsmouth, but at opposite ends of the table.

Ground: Fratton Park Game: Portsmouth 0-0 Yeovil Town Date: 03/10/2015 There aren’t many football clubs in England that can boast playing at the same ground for over a century, but Fratton Park has been home to Portsmouth since 1898. Therefore, it shouldn’t be surprising that the… Read more »

They say doing the 92 is a marathon not a sprint, but the92.net blogger Tim Dove is now in the sprint – if this were the Marathon at the London Olympics he’d be entering the last 400 metres on the Olympic Stadium track… Ground: Broadfield Stadium 91/92 Game: Crawley Town 0-1 Yeovil Town Date: 19/09/2015 Thoughts on the ground: Crawley Town was one of the grounds remaining on my ‘to visit’ list for two reasons: my own side had yet to play here and the fact it was so far away from home. So it became my penultimate ground of… Read more »
